Clinical Governance June 2018

This quarterly bulletin covers literature relating to clinical governance and should be of interest to a variety of NHS staff. It is intended as an information tool to help you keep up to date with developments in your area of clinical expertise and interest. It is not an expression of organisational policy. The inclusion of a guideline, system, tool or similar in this newsletter does not imply that it is used, or should be implemented, within NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde.

Many of the following articles are available online via the NHS Scotland Knowledge Network. Please use the links where provided and your ATHENS login. A complete list of available online journals and registration for ATHENS can be found at www.knowledge.scot.nhs.uk.

If you click on the link for full text and there is no full text available through the Knowledge Network, use the “Get it for me” link for the article and complete the online request form provided. This is a new system which is still being developed – if you have any problems or questions, then Library staff will be happy to help. Our main contact is library.network@ggc.scot.nhs.uk.
